FIRST AID MEASURES Eye Contact: Skin Contact: Ingestion: Inhalation: Flush with water while holding eyelids open for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention immediately. Remove contaminated clothing. Flush area with large amounts of water. Use soap. Seek medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Wash out mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting unless directed by medical personnel. Seek medical attention immediately. Remove to fresh air and keep patient at rest. Seek medical attention immediately. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Extinguishing Media: Hazardous Combustion Products: Fire Fighting Procedures: Fire / Explosion Hazards: Use carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or water spray. Formation of toxic gases is possible during heating or fire. During all fire fighting activities, wear appropriate protective equipment, including selfcontained breathing apparatus. Fine particles (such as dust and mists) may fuel fires/explosions. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Health and Safety Precautions: Measures for Cleaning / Collecting: Measures for Environmental Protections: Additional Consideration for Large Spills: Personnel involved in clean-up should wear appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Minimize exposure. Contain the source of spill if it is safe to do so. Collect spilled material by a method that controls dust generation. A damp cloth or a filtered vacuum should be used to clean spills of dry solids. Clean spill area thoroughly. Place waste in an appropriately labeled, sealed container for disposal. Care should be taken to avoid environmental release. Non-essential personnel should be evacuated from affected area. Report emergency situations immediately. Clean up operations should only be undertaken by trained personnel.

Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. When handling, use appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Wash thoroughly after handling. Releases to the environment should be avoided. Review and implement appropriate technical and procedural waste water and waste disposal measures to prevent occupational exposure or environmental releases. Potential points of process emissions of this material to the atmosphere should be controlled with dust collectors, HEPA filtration systems or other equivalent controls. Store as directed by product packaging. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Refer to available public information for specific member state Occupational Exposure Limits. ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TWA) 10 mg/m 3 ACGIH OELs - Notice of Intended Changes Listed Australia TWA 10 mg/m 3 Belgium OEL - TWA 10 mg/m 3 Czech Republic OEL - TWA 10 mg/m 3 Estonia OEL - TWA 10 mg/m 3 Finland OEL - TWA 20 mg/m 3 France OEL - TWA 10 mg/m 3 Germany (DFG) - MAK 50 mg/m 3 Greece OEL - TWA 10 mg/m 3 Ireland OEL - TWAs 10 mg/m 3 OSHA - Final PELS - TWAs: 15 mg/m 3 Poland OEL - TWA 10 mg/m 3 Portugal OEL - TWA 10 mg/m 3 Spain OEL - TWA 10 mg/m 3 Pfizer OEL TWA-8 Hr: 3000µg/m 3 Engineering Controls: Environmental Exposure Controls: Personal Protective Equipment: Hands: Eyes: Skin: Respiratory protection: Engineering controls should be used as the primary means to control exposures. General room ventilation is adequate unless the process generates dust, mist or fumes. Keep airborne contamination levels below the exposure limits listed above in this section. Refer to specific Member State legislation for requirements under Community environmental legislation. Refer to applicable national standards and regulations in the selection and use of personal protective equipment (PPE). Impervious gloves are recommended if skin contact with drug product is possible and for bulk processing operations. Wear safety glasses or goggles if eye contact is possible. Impervious protective clothing is recommended if skin contact with drug product is possible and for bulk processing operations. If the applicable Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) is exceeded, wear an appropriate respirator with a protection factor sufficient to control exposures to below the OEL.
